Livia Fontana Villero Barolo 2020

Hailing from Italy's prestigious Piedmont region, the Livia Fontana Villero Barolo 2020 is a profound expression of the Castiglione Falletto subregion. Established in 1820, the family-run Livia Fontana estate reflects a two-century winemaking legacy currently managed by Livia Fontana and her children. The winery emphasizes an artisanal approach, utilizing integrated pest management and meticulous manual work in the vineyards to produce authentic, terroir-driven wines.

Wine Description

Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, this wine displays a deep garnet red color with classic orange reflections developing near the rim. The complex and layered bouquet reveals aromas of ripe red fruits, dried flowers, and savory spices, alongside deeper notes of tobacco, leather, and a subtle balsamic touch. On the palate, it exhibits a powerful yet balanced structure where fine, well-integrated tannins support a rich, complex body. The vibrant acidity characteristic of the varietal keeps the palate dynamic and fresh, leading into a long, persistent finish filled with returning fruit and spice.
